The best pocket knife
This knife is the only one my husband will carry. He is an electrician so I cannot even begin to count how many I have bought due to him losing them but he will not use any other knife. This knife is the perfect size. It is very lightweight and easy to sharpen. It is not thick and bulky like a lot of knives but is rather thin. If you’re looking for a sharp lightweight knife this is a good one.

Great little knife
Shopped for a long time to find the perfect pocket knife for me. Tried a couple of others, but didn't feel like I have found "the one" until I got this. Easy to open, close with one hand and a little flick. Left or right hand thumb stud. Fits my hand with a good rubberized grip. Sharp.

WELL MADE, GREAT VALUE
This was razor sharp out of the package, no slop/looseness in the well mfg'd blade, and a nicely shaped handle that's thick enough to be comfortable (very) but still do well in your pocket. It's significantly better than Gerber's LST 2, which is not a bad knife, but not as comfy in hand or well made. It's made in Japan, not China, and as a light weight knife I can't think of a better one in it's class, especially at this price. It's a great first knife for your kid as the handle is easy for smaller hands to hold securely, which is why I bought it for mine. I'll probably break down and get another for myself.

Good quality
This is the 2nd one I have purchased for my Lineman husband. The only reason I needed the 2nd one is that he lost the first after many years using it.

Excellent small lock blade knife.
I got this knife for about $7.50 and it was selling in many other places for $30-45. At the price I got it it was a steal. Depending on your point of view this is a large small knife or a small medium knife. It is a good size for pocket use. It has no clip. I have large hands and can hide it in my clinched fist just barely for size reference. I get a very secure three finger grip on the open knife. The grove to accommodate the opening stud catches my index finger and aids a secure grip. The opening stud works well. It is only on one side but it is held in place by a Phillips #0 screw so it can easily be set to right or left handed. The drop point blade comes very sharp and is well made. It locks very securely with no slop side to side or up and down. The lock mechanism is activated on the back of the handle and is easy to use. The handle is a nylon resin and has a large rubber insert for comfort. The handle has a good no slip design. There is a lanyard hole. I like everything about this very portable pocket knife. I would recommend it and buy it again. And its not made in China. Its made in Japan. It does not come with a pouch.

Great knife -
This is the second of theses knives I have owned. The steel is very good, and holds an edge well. The one-hand-opening feature works smoothly and can be reversed for right or left hand operation. The composite handle is compact and slip resistant and fits into pants pockets easily and comfortably. I would buy another one of these.
